( THE SNEAK OUT )
Delaney made sure they got far from the cafeteria before she snatched her hand from him, then she inhaled.
"Nice one in there badass" Mavis smiled.
"That was just a play ok?, A play" she said.
"I know, I love rough plays so it was nothing" he replied, and she smiled lightly.
"So...are we... friends?" He asked.
"Why do you wanna be my friend?" She asked.
"Maybe... this might come up again, I mean the need for me" he winked, and she chuckled.
"Hey, are you also full of yourself?"
"Is it a bad thing?" He raised a brow.
"No, it's a thing for jerks" she replied.
"Then I'm a jerk" he replied, and she laughed loud.
"Good to see you laughing widely like that" he smiled.
"Thanks for making me laugh, jerk" she said.
"I prefer sugar, your sugar" he said, biting his lip the way he likes.
"Shut up" she replied, and he laughed.
"We're friends ok?, You can't go back on your words" he said.
"Fine, a trial won't break my finger" she replied.
"Yes!" He jumped.
"Bye sugarcane!" She smiled as she started walking away.
"Wait...what!" He shouted, and she laughed as she walked faster.
He ran after her and blocked her.
"What again sugarcane?" She glared.
"Did Dylan really do all those things for you in highschool?" He asked.
"You saw the letters and video" she replied.
"It's just surprising, and you're a bit wicked, your rejection was hot" he laughed.
"You don't expect me to be lenient on a persistent jerk like him" she rolled eyes.
"But what was that back then at the cafeteria?, You used me to make him jealous, does that mean... You're now falling for him?" He asked.
"How do you expects to fall for a rapist!" She shouted before she could stop herself, and Mavis searched through her eyes.
"Ra...pist?"
"Pretend like you didn't hear that" she snapped and walked away.
"Did he rape someone close to her?, Or...was it her?" Mavis muttered.
*****
The gym class is the last class for the day, and immediately it was time, the students started moving to the locker room to change into the outfit.
"So....all those fun things really happened during your highschool days?" Melinda asked as she made her way to the gym with the girls.
"Sure, our highschool days were fun" Paisley replied.
"Then what's the bitter memory Delaney was talking about?, It seemed fun" Carina said, and Delaney sighed.
"It's nothing to talk about" she said and sighted a black girl who was also just about to enter the locker room.
"There are blacks here?" She said surprisingly.
"She's the only black, though I've never seen her in class" Melinda replied.
"Hey!" Paisley waved at the girl.
"Hi girls!" The girl smiled out her dimples, her blue eyes sparkling.
"Aww!, You're so cute!" Delaney complimented.
"Thanks, you're cuter" the girl replied.
"What's your name?" Carina asked cheerfully.
"Gianna Robertson, Gigi for short, mum is an American, black American tbp, and dad is a Nigerian, so basically...I'm a Nigerian-American" she replied brightly.
"Cool, I'm Delaney" Delaney smiled.
"I know, you're quite popular" Gigi giggled.
"I'm Paisley" Paisley waved.
"I'm Carina"
"And I'm Melinda"
"We're roommates, room 100" Delaney said, and Gigi's eyes widened.
"Room 99!"
"So your room is just beside ours!" Carina smiled.
"Of course!, I'll come have fun at your room often, and I'd like to be friends with y'all, if you all don't mind my skin color" she said.
"Of course!, Melanie is hot!, And besides, we're not racists so please come Gigi!" Paisley said.
"It's almost time for gym, we gotta change!" Melinda said.
They rushed in together and got changed quickly before rushing all the way to the big gymnastics hall.
"Luxurious" Paisley said as they all started looking around for the machine they can handle before the arrival of the supervisor.
Delaney and Paisley went for stationary bikes, Melinda and Carina choose treadmills while Gigi went far to the back to sit on a water rower.
"Why did she go back?" Delaney wondered aloud.
"Her choice maybe" Melinda replied, and the P3 came in immediately, excluding Dylan though.
Midas came shirtless, just hot red pants on his waist, Trevor wore an armless grey singlet on thin pants, both looking dishy.
👥 Look at them!
👥 I wish I can date one of them!
👥 If only I can occupy Midas bed for an hour!
👥 I'll gladly give them my p**sy for free!
👥 Oh my hell!
"My baby is so cute!" Melinda gushed, tripping all-over Trevor.
"Who's your baby?" Carina, Delaney and Paisley asked at a time.
"Trevor of course!" Melinda winked.
"You're just not serious with your life, same guy you declined being friends with?" Paisley rolled eyes.
"I told you guys I wanna play hard to...
"Duhh, wait till he falls for another girl in the space of those two months" Carina said.
"He won't" Melinda stick out her tongue, and Delaney giggled.
Mavis came into the gym next, wearing long black joggers but he's shirtless, his packs screaming s*xy!!!, He was looking handsome like a devil in black, and his abs are crazy.
He opened the bottle of water with him and poured it all on his hair, and as it streamed down his hair to his face and chest, numerous girls lost their breaths.
He shook his head, and his wet hair splashed out in the s*xiest way ever.
👥 Mavis please stopp!!!
👥 I'm dying here!!!
Girls screamed out, and he bit his lip before moving forward, but he bumped into someone immediately.
The mere sight of the person made his mood change.
"Your eyes fell into her hole while f**king her, I see" he smirked and pushed him out of the way before going for a press up machine.
The guy looked at him for long before leaving for his spot.
"Who's that guy?" Delaney asked.
"His name is Nicholas, heard he was Mavis best and only friend before, but they split cos of something unknown to anyone, and after they split, Mavis girlfriend left the country too, then Mavis became a smoking junkie" Carina replied.
"The smoker had a girlfriend?" Delaney giggled.
"Yeah, her name was Sydney Harper, but I heard they broke up before she travelled" Melinda replied.
"Whoa, maybe something happened between the three" Delaney sighed, looking over at Mavis who was already working out on the machine.
"Sure" Melinda sighed, and Madelyn came in.
As usual, girls admired her outfits and brands, even her headband and earrings, everything is expensive and no one is using same brand, it's so rare.
She looked at everyone like flies before walking to Midas and Trevor.
"Where's my baby?" She asked.
"He went back to the hostel" Trevor replied, and she turned to go but her eyes fell on Gigi.
Gigi moved uncomfortably on the machine immediately, and Madelyn smirked before trying to walk out, but the gym supervisor came in.
"Now here's a good news before we start the class, the brand the school will be photoshooting for this month is...." She said brightly, and everyone held their breaths.
"Donni!" She announced.
👥 OMG!!!
"So get prepared everyone, they need just one male and one female model, next week we'll be holding the first round of the runway audition" the supervisor said again, and Delaney smiled.
"If I don't get picked, no one else will" Madelyn smirked.
*****
HOSTEL★ P3 APARTMENT★3 HOURS LATER**
It was already past 5, but Dylan hasn't stopped crying, he has been on it since he came back from school, and right now his head hurts, the whole component is literally bumping.
His face is on the pillow, and the pillow is already all wet from his tears.
When they say regrets stings more than thousands bees, he has never thought about it till now, it stings, and he's getting sick of himself already.
The pleasure he had with her that night was just twenty minutes, but he has been regretting it in pains for more than two years now.
Madelyn's presence acted as a barrier to keep him from hurting, but now that Delaney herself is here, no way to fight it anymore.
He can't even tell his friends what he did cos it's shameful.
He sniffed again, and Midas came in.
"Dude, now I remember two years ago, we made a bet but you didn't tell us the outcome, what did you do to Delaney that night?" He asked straight, and Trevor came in.
"Dylan are you crying?" He asked worriedly, and Dylan looked up, his face so red from tears.
"Dude!" Midas shouted shockingly.
He left the bed and bumped them out of the way as he left the room.
He met Madelyn just coming into the living room.
"Baby what happened to...
He pushed out of the way before she could finish, then he left the apartment.
"Dylan!!!" She shouted, running after him.
Midas came out of the room with Trevor, and he licked his lower lip.
"Hope it's not what I'm thinking" he muttered.
*****
5:30PM★ ROMA RESTAURANT**
"My name is Delaney, and I'm your server for tonight, what would you like to have?" Delaney smiled radiantly as she handed the menu to a customer.
"Chicken and some salad please, then the signature wine" the man replied.
"Ok sir, in a jiffy" she smiled and left to get it.
Her boss smiled as she watched her serve, she's really diligent in what she does and that's why she likes her a lot. She's the best server who has drawn many customers to the restaurant.
Soon it was 6pm, her shift ended and she took off the pink apron before rushing out of the restaurant, checking the time as she ran.
"I should get there before 6:15" she said as she entered a taxi.
Before 6:15, she got to the coffee shop and changed into the yellow vest and cap after rolling her hair to a ponytail, she joined the other servers.
"Welcome Delaney" her male boss said, and she replied with a smile, grabbing a tray.
She started serving around till 7:15pm when her shift got over, then she rushed out of the place again, wiping the sweat on her face with an handkerchief as she started running.
The dry cleaning shop is not that far from there, so she only ran for five minutes before getting there
"Welcome best drycleaner!" Her boss said cheerfully.
"Thanks boss!" She smiled, changing into the blue uniform.
The clothes she's to wash were already waiting, and within twenty minutes, she got them done.
"You have twenty deliveries to make" the boss said, giving her the packaged clean clothes.
She took them out and started deliveries which took close to an hour.
She returned the bike to the shop before rushing to find a taxi which she rode back to the hostel.
It was already 8:40 when the taxi broke down, so she had to get down and start walking the remaining distance.
She was on it when a car stopped beside her, and Dylan came out of it.
She pretended not to see him and just continued her walk, but he blocked her.
"Out of my way!" She said.
"Dela I'm so....I mean... Delaney I'm sorry, i just wanna know what I should do to earn your forgiveness, I want...
"I'm not in the mood to talk to you right now, as you can see I'm late, I must get to the hostel before lights out" she rolled eyes.
"Delaney I swear I'm regretting, I'm not the same Dylan you know anymore, I changed and...
"And how the f**k is your change my headache?" She grimaced.
"I'm ready to do anything to earn your forgiveness so please... please Delaney I'm...
"You think it's that easy?, I lost my parents on the night you defiled me and took my virginity against my will Dylan!, I'll never!, I mean never!, Forgive you bastard!" She shouted, pushing him out of the way, but he went on his knees immediately, holding her hand.
"Dela..." He sniffed and started crying .
"I'm... I know I hurt you, like...I know I don't deserve to even be this close but...can you just give me the chance to try my best at healing you?, Huh?, Please I...
"No chance!" She snapped her hand out of his hold and walked away furiously, leaving him on his knees.
"Gawd, she's never gonna forgive me" Dylan cried louder, sitting on the bare ground.
*
Delaney was lucky to get to the hostel five minutes before lights out, and immediately she entered her room, she spotted Gigi first.
She's sitting on her bed.
"Gianna!" She smiled.
"Babe!" Gigi rushed to give her an hug.
"So we're invisible" Paisley smirked playfully.
"Come here idiot" Delaney grinned and hugged her too.
"Mee too!" Carina pouted, widening her arms.
"Gosh!, You girls are all babies" Delaney chuckled as she hugged her.
Melinda was already widening her arms before they broke it, and she hugged her too.
"How did your part time jobs go?, The girls told me about it" Gigi asked .
"Great as usual, the good thing is the month will soon end, my salaries!" She winked, and they all laughed.
The lights went out immediately, and they all scurried to their beds, getting under the sheets.
Gigi shared Delaney's bed with her.
"I haven't even changed into my PJs" Delaney whispered.
"We actually have a plan" Gigi replied.
"What plan?" Delaney asked.
"Melinda brought alcohol, they're prohibited but we have to get them in and have fun tonight" Gigi replied.
"What if we get caught?, That's dangerous" Delaney whispered.
"Risks is part of life, don't you wanna be high?" Gigi replied, and Delaney giggled.
"Bad girls"
"Girls!, Get up!" Melinda said.
They all got up from their beds
"Where did you hide the alcohol?" Delaney asked.
"The waste bin" Paisley replied.
"Let's go" Carina said as Melinda opened the door first.
She peeped into the dark corridor to make sure Mrs Kat is not around with her team before stepping out
The others stepped out with her.
None of them is wearing slipons, they're all barefoot.
Melinda led them, Paisley followed, then Gigi behind her, Delaney behind Gigi, Carina is the last.
Luckily, they didn't come across Mrs Kat till they got to the bin.
Carefully, Melinda offloaded the bags of trash and took the alcohol package, then they started tiptoeing back to their room, but Delaney was the last this time.
"Careful, careful, don't make any sound" Paisley whispered when they got back to the corridor.
"Shut up" Melinda whispered back.
"Who's there!" Mrs Kat's voice came, and they all froze on the spot.
"Shit!, Run" Paisley whispered and they all started rushing all the way to the room.
Delaney slipped and fell in the process, hurting her elbows more.
Before she could stand, all the girls entered the room already, it's just her in the dark corridor.
She made to move, but the lights came on and her eyes widened.
"If you're out, stop on your tracks!" Mrs Kat's voice came again, and her eyes widened again.
Suddenly, someone pulled her away from the corridor to a corner.
It was so tight that she got stuck with the person, and her face was right on his chest.
He was holding her waist with her first hand, and the second was holding her head to his chest.
She she tried her best to keep her breathing low as Mrs Kat got closer.
He pulled her impossibly closer to himself, she could feel his fingers on her scalp already, his mild milky scent filling her thin nostrils.
Mrs Kat finally walked past without seeing them, then she started looking up..
Slowly...
Steadily...
